You Bet Your Life - Rupert Holmes

Get a life, get a job,

Did you know you were the kind of slob

Who’s in bed asleep all day

I used to be that way

Here and now, now and then

Although I never say out loud

Here and now, now and then

You know that there’s a moment when

I could leave, get out now,

Get on and roll the world is big and round

Anytime, anyday, I used to think that way

Oh but I know it’s true she’s got a hold on you

And then half your life, it just went sailing by Her whole world’s intoxicating me All my senses are at sea

She’s the kind of girl, she’s got you in a whirl

It gets so complicated

Me, I’m not proud, i’ll say now the girl is So frustrating, keeps me wishing

Keeps me waiting

Lost in this world like a child all at sea

You see your life drifting by but today’s all you need

Here and now, now and then

Although I never say out loud

Here and now, now and then

You know that there’s a moment when

Oh I just know it’s true, she’s got a hold on you

Oh and it feels so nice, this feels like paradise

You bet your life
